Mali Vegan Thai Restaurant in Kensington and Chelsea

I had a fantastic meal at Mali Vegan Thai Restaurant in London! The cozy, welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff made the experience even better. I tried the Pad Thai, and it was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. If you're looking for authentic Thai flavors with a vegan twist, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommended!

As a Thai, I can say this restaurant serves truly authentic Thai vegan food! Every dish I ordered was absolutely delicious, perfectly seasoned, and served quickly. The service was great, and I’ll definitely be coming back!

It is very good, more than I expected! Especially the first one, fried ravioli was exceptionally delicious! I do recommend to taste it first! It is really a suitable introduction of this restaurant’s high reputation, I believe.

Just ordered a couple of starters for takeaway during a hotel stay while touristing. They were in fact, incredibly tasty. Wish I knew how to cook like that at home.

We didn't try a lot but everything we ate was exceptionally good! The fried dumplings, mama je oat and namtok noodle are recommended. The atmosphere was very cute and comfy, and service was comparable to the speed of light :) overall 10/10.

We found this place by chance, walking through the streets near our hotel. We were pleasantly impressed by the courtesy of the staff, the speed with which the dishes arrived and the quantity of them (the price is justified by the quality and quantity). It is a little hidden, and for this reason also a little more "intimate" than the classic Thai restaurant. There is a calm and relaxed atmosphere. Advised.

Everything was delicious!!!I never order dessert because im to full but my partner ordered the Kluai Buad Chee and omg it was soooooooooooo good i ended up eating have of theirs :')

Fue tan encantador. Olía increíble, la decoración era linda, nos sirvieron rápidamente y la comida en sí era tan buena! Me encanta encontrar lugares totalmente veganos que se convierten en una joya instantánea. Definitivamente volveré

Top Thai restaurant with tasty authentic food and attentive service. Menu is all vegan and included milk tea (the boozy version was yummy too!). Booked in advance for the special menu Hot Pot, which was an amazing experience (see pics). 2 broths were given and a lot of vegetables, tofu, dumplings, sauces and 2 types of noodles. The crispy chive cakes as a starter were also delicious.

We came for lunch today (05.01.25) for the 1st time. Unfortunately the service was rushed & we didn’t feel valued as customers. Staff smiles were fake. Maybe they felt we didn’t order ‘enough’ food however we were drinking cocktails so our bill wasn’t a small one. Food was nicely presented & tasted nice. But I won’t be coming back.

My new favorite restaurant🤗 Beautiful location, very friendly waiters, fantastic food. Lots of GF dishes, Thanks🙏

Super quick and super tasty food.

Probably the best Thai food I have ever had! The massaman curry was truly delicious as was the papaya salad. Can’t wait to go back and try some other dishes! 100% recommend.

Best flavour experience in all of London

Favourite Thai place in London! Keep coming back again and again and there is always something else to try and it’s always delicious. Staff is always amazing and the place is beautifully decorated!

Probably been here like 5-6 times, never fail to amuse me how authentic, flavourful and unique the flavours are here. “Fish” in red curry sauce, the meaty tom yum soup are my absolute favorites. Portions for the main dishes are huge, we usually go for a curry, a soup, stir fry sharing for 2 and barely can finish.

Service is great and quick. We were very happy because the dishes taste great and the place is very cozy, so I wanted to leave a top review. However, a few hours after eating there, I still feel heavy and bloated, which makes me think that the food must’ve been very heavy and oily.

Unbelievable food and really nice decor and service inside, food prepared to really high level, highly recommend

A very cosy Thai place tucked away in a side street serving all vegan options which are great for my vegetarian friends! Walked in at 5:30pm and got a table right away as the place has just opened. Ordered the butterfly pea iced drink which is served with a slice of lime and it’s not only refreshing but a very fun drink to watch it turned from blue to purple after squeezing in some lime juice. My friends ordered the drunken noodles (which the spiciness can be adjusted) and pad thai while I went for the chick pea massaman curry with rice berry rice (a whole grain purple rice). The food arrived quickly and all very tasty especially my curry. Very attentive service too which makes the dining experience even more pleasant and I definitely will return to dine again if I am in the area!

It’s hard to find a truly remarkable Thai restaurant let alone a vegan one. We stumbled upon Mali by chance on a dreary London day and what a fantastic experience it was. Staff were friendly and the pictures draping the walls were nostalgic. Food arrived extremely quickly and although I normally dislike Thai food, I was surprised by the flavours on display. The Massaman curry was the standout with its sunset-like vibrance and creamy flavour. The drunken noodles with mock duck was also a great dish.

Everything is delicious 🤤😋 Staff are very friendly

Had the most delicious meal here. Have come here many times and it is just one of my favourite restaurants. Lovely staff and ambience and SO DELICIOUS.

We came here due to many recommendations from people we know and we were not disappointed. The food was insanely good, beautiful aromatic flavours and presented wonderfully. We had the chive cakes, the satay tofu and mushrooms, the fried fish red Thai curry ( which was incredible) and the northern curried noodles which came in a delicious sauce! Definitely returning and will definitely recommend!

I was working in London and accidentally and luckily discovered this amazing restaurant hidden at Earls Court. Now every time I come to London I make sure to visit and try something different on the menu. Staff are friendly and the food amazing for a vegan! Cannot recommend enough!

I had a takeaway so didn’t sit inside but the atmosphere when I went to collect was great. The food was absolutely delicious and the price good too. My takeaway was ready for me in 10-15 mins.

Incredible food. Everything we ordered was really good! Also great service and atmosphere, will definitiely return!

We are only half way through our order and it is already a-mazing!!!! Everything is so fresh and fragrant and tasty! We are not even vegan!

Excellent place for vegan Thai cuisine, lots of options and everything delicious

I am not vegan or vegetarian but I can say with 100% confidence that you will not miss meat at this restaurant. I would describe this as a superb thai restaurant that happens to not use meat. The meat substitutes they use are insanely good and of course the dishes using veggies were equally good. We had a large selection of starters - all were delicious, chive fritters, papaya salad etc. I was in a large group and everyone really enjoyed the mains. We had the red curry with fried fish dish - you would absolutely not tell you weren't eating fish and the curry was so good. another standout was the yellow curry noodle dish with (fake) beef brisket - texture of the beef substitute was insanely close to the real deal and the curry and noodles were spot on. Prices are very reasonable for the quality. The menu is quite large so there is a lot to choose from and I am sure that it is all good!

So so good! Food was amazing, and the place is designed really well too.

Really great restaurant. Great dishes, all perfectly seasoned. Despite special requests, the food was prepared surprisingly quickly. All the staff were very polite and competent: they were familiar with the menu and possible allergens and were very helpful. We liked it so much that we ate there two days in a row.

We managed to get a last minute booking at Mali on a Saturday on a recent trip into Central London. Staff were very friendly and attentive throughout and the food was amazing. Decor was very good even in bathrooms! I would recommend this place for vegans and non vegans. For mains we had the pad kee mao and pla tip pad prik both dishes were very flavoursome. If only we lived closer we could visit more often.

I would like to give the food 100 stars. Simply so delicious, whether it's a starter, main course or dessert. And the service was to die for. Would come back at any time.

Very good vegan Thai. Its too expensive tho

Delicious food with warm and friendly staff :) Glad that there’s a fully vegan restaurant!

We had the best dinner at Mali today, exellent service, delicious food and cool place, we couldn't belive it's all vegan!! highly recommended!

Small but nice. Very tasty food.

If you are looking to try different mock meats within authentic Thai cuisine, then Mali is the best place for you. The menu at Mali is very vibrant and the food is flavourful. As per my Thai friends, the taste at Mali is quite exquisite. About the place - Located in a small alley of Earls court very cosy place and the staff is very sweet. The staff being from Thailand is good at recommending dishes and aim at giving you a great experience.

The food was delicious and arrived incredibly fast

Buen restaurante vegano tailandés en Earls Court. Excelente servicio y deliciosa comida. Precio razonable, aunque bueno para Londres! Sugiero que incluyan más opciones de tofu.

Rude behaviour, denied seating and service on walk-in even if there were several empty tables and available bookings on the website. Never going to visit a place which doesn't respect customers

Incredibly fast food! Our order was all with us within minutes - it was unbelievable 😂 very flavoursome and good. Only downside was the portions being on the small side.

Lovely vegan restaurant, amazing food and very efficient and welcoming service. I highly recommend it 👌

The Tom Kha was a religious experience. Also had spring rolls which were sooo good. The service was super quick. I’ve never had such a good experience with Thai Food. Great place for vegans and non vegans aswell.

Food was great! Well seasoned, flavorful, and even surprised me as I had never had grapes in a red curry before (surprisingly delicious). The portions are small and the food is pricey, hence the four stars. Despite this, the food came out quick and service was decent.

I thought the food here was really good. I wasn’t able to try the vegan meats due to allergies, so got the massman curry and it was great.

Delicious fresh vegan food. I enjoyed the Thai green curry with purple rice and papaya salad.

The food is so so good. Definitely the best Thai food we’ve had in London by far. Highly recommend the pad Thai, fish red curry, yellow curry and skewers. The service is excellent as well as the interior. Perfect experience, will be back

A really beautiful space with a gracious staff. The takeaway was delicious! I had the Satay and the Pad Thai. It was wonderful to find a delightful vegan restaurant.

Luckily this restaurant is very close to my hotel. A hidden gem for sure! The food is so good!

Delicious food and great staff, managed to find a table for us in between bookings when it was completely full.

Can’t say enough good things about Mali Vegan Thai! The flavours are incredible, every dish was fresh and felt authentic. I took my Thai mother who is not vegan and she LOVED it. We’ll definitely be back.

Not as good as expected , it was just OK Food came out too quick, dumplings had an overpowering taste of wheat gluten. Nothing was memorable ,sorry won't be rushing back

I was skeptical about vegan thai but the taste is so unique, I can’t wait to eat again there

It's a hidden gem in Earl's Court, where I went to celebrate my friend's birthday. The food was good, though the veggies in my dish had a slightly bitter taste. I also had a Thai cocktail, which was delicious. The service was quick, and the place was clean. I’ll definitely go back again!

Their vegan thai dishes has the same authentic and delicious taste as the meat based alternative: this place deserves a Michelin Star.

You will not leave disappointed, an excellent thai restaurant. I never leave reviews but this this restaurant deserves praise

Delicious- whether or not you’re vegan, this food is amazing!

Delicious Thai vegan food that you can trust!

Wooow! Best vegan food I’ve ever had!

The environment is pleasant, calm, organized, clean. I really liked the friendly and efficient service. The service is very fast. I was very indecisive when ordering, as there are many interesting dishes that look tasty. I didn't have much luck with my order: Sam Moo Tip Kua Prik accompanied by rice. The dish had a very strong flavor of coriander and pepper, which made it difficult to taste the ingredients. A shame, because it's an interesting dish. For dessert, I tried Kao Neaw I-Tim Mamuang, with a very tasty mango ice cream, sweet glutinous rice and coconut jelly cube. Very good! The price is ok, London standard and fair for what it offers.

A hidden gem at earl courts. Really friendly and cute place, amazing food. The dessert was delicious. It’s a mango ice cream with something else soooo good.

Took my parents here a while ago and it was such an amazing experience. The restaurant is a small tucked away gem in Earl's Court and the vibe is immaculate, the food is stunning and the service was amazing. I'd be eating here a lot more regularly if it wasn't so far away!

Very great restaurant with a nice atmosphere. A little hidden so you can't see it when walking past. The food was very tasty, the service was quick and friendly! A must for vegetarians and/or vegans in London!

It’s an all vegan restaurant. It is a delightful experience. We had made reservation but had to wait for around 25 minutes before being seated inside. For this reason we were offered complementary drinks and one dessert which was very kind and a great customer service. Every dish was so tasteful. I think it’s one of the best vegan restaurants I have ever visited. The staff is very courteous and polite. Service is excellent. A not to miss place. Parking available.

Great address. Very tasty dish (Kao Soi Nuea) and delicious. Quality welcome and very fast service. We waited no more than 10 minutes before being served. Alright.

SO GOOD! Billiant flavours and textures, reasonably priced, and really nice staff and atmosphere. It's also beautiful. Feels like a hidden treasure that me and my friend were lucky to find

The most delicious Thai food! Love the variety of vegan mock meats and veg options.

High level flavors and service, recommended!

It is great to go this restaurant and not have to worry about what dish to have for vegetarians like me. Simply put I would have any of the dishes without a second thought as they are all delicious.Highly recommended

Este es un lugar casual con comida vegana tailandesa. No estaba muy impresionado con la comida aquí. El aperitivo pastel de cebolleta era mi cosa favorita. Pedimos curry verde, albóndigas fritas y algunos artículos más, pero nada genial. La comida es promedio aquí. El servicio era bueno.

The food was just amazing, especially stir fried dishes alternative to meat. The location is very nice.

Bad service and experience, one of the servers refused to serve me and signalled another server to come take my order. Food did not taste good at all, either too salty or too sweet.

Amazing food. Had the red curry. It is out of this world.

Really quick service and lovely food

Varied vegan menu, if you take the starter don't miss the tofu and skewered mushrooms! After the appetizer, immerse yourself in the spicy mix of vegetables and tofu with your choice of white or red rice (Pad pak ruam)

Comida encantadora, personal encantador y un gran ambiente! Me encontré con esto en una recomendación de Instagram. Deliciosa comida vegana, muerto frente a la estación Earl’s Court. Me encantó!

If you’re in Earls Court and fancy some vegan food, Mali is a spot worth checking out. It’s a Thai restaurant in a great location, with a really cool vibe. The menu has some fantastic vegan options – I tried the vegan cod and morning glory, and they were both delicious. The noodles were spot on too, really tasty. For dessert, the mango ice cream was a nice touch, light and refreshing. The staff are super friendly and make you feel right at home. Overall, it’s a great place for a casual meal with some seriously good vegan dishes.

Ordered drunken noodles and spring roles , restaurant was very good at handling my allergens and labelled clearly anything i could not eat thank you for that. Food was very delicious however some feedback the spring roles were soggy when they arrived because of condensation in box, it would be good if the restaurant they left a hole in the box so the heat could escape and not make them soggy. Highly recommend and will order again

Top favorite meal in London! A must!

The words “Thai” + “vegan” means heaven to us. They offer everyone’s favourite, from Pad Thai to curries to coconut dessert, and many more. Thai Ice Milk Tea is a must try (I don’t like British milk tea but I love this!) Vivid interior is a bonus to get some Insta perfect selfies. I’m not giving 5 stars, because the staff weren’t quite attentive nor smiley when we were there. However, they did their job impeccably.

Beautiful little restaurant with great food.

One of the best Vegan Thai food in London. I am not vegan but I have visited the restaurant so many times. As I have fallen in love with all the dishes on the menu . I tried different dishes every time I go .The food is so delicious every time I have visited. Amazing service and very friendly staff. The food is served very quickly. Highly recommended for everyone vegan or not .

Very delicious & food served very fresh!! Great spice and in total a lovely restaurant experience!

Amazing and fast service and amazing food. 10/10, definitely will come here again and again!

Wow, you could almost walk past this little gem as it's so well tucked away, but you really should make the effort to go check it out. Firstly I'm not a Vegan, we had some Asian food earlier in the day in Chinatown which was downright awful, so our itch hadn't been scratched, and we had walked past this place nearby to our hotel. Cut to later in the evening, roughly 9.30 pm on a sunday night.... we approached and were immediately greeted with a smile and brought inside, the lady told us the kitchen would be closing in 30 minutes, but if we were ready to order and it gave us enough time to eat then we were most welcome, it was like night and day with our earlier customer service! We decided on what we wanted and that we would have enough time to sit and enjoy a (late) meal, and this turned out to be the best decision of the day. The menu was wonderful, as was the accompanying mango iced tea!!! We opted for the Popcorn Chicken, Tom Yum Soup, Tofu & Green Apple Salad to share, each and every dish was a joy to look at, wonderful fresh ingredients, all obviously prepared with love, professionalism and pride. Every mouthfull was an explosion of fresh clean tastes, you could taste every ingredient, and the balance of flavours was perfect, we were reaching the point of the kitchen closing, when we noticed mango sticky rice on the menu, we asked if it would be possible to get some, and with a smile we were told it wouldn't be a problem....... and what a delicious end to our meal it was! Everything about this place shows how much they care about the produce, the ingredients, the presentation, the customer service, I could happily give up meat and dairy if every meal was as perfectly prepared as this! If you ever find yourself looking for tasty Thai food, regardless of your dietary persuasions, you would be very hard pressed to find anywhere better in our capital than Mali. Absolutely outstanding!

Honestly the best Thai food I’ve eaten outside of Thailand. Extremely flavourful, moreish and fresh. The staff really looked after us, food came quickly and stood no chance! Highly recommended.

Very tasteful vegan food! Nice and quiet atmosphere in a busy part of london. Highly recommended, whether you’re vegan or not. :)

Really delicious food and lovely atmosphere! Great for gluten free options too.

Best Thai food in London - and vegan too! Vibrant and flavourful - every dish looked and tasted amazing! My friend and I had crispy spring rolls, tofu and mushroom satay skewers, khao soi, and massaman curry with rice. Highly recommend the Khao Soi - the best I've ever had! We dined here on a busy Saturday night, yet the service was attentive and friendly. Really looking forward to returning to try all the other incredible looking meals!

Great, tasty food with a range of dishes that vegans and non-vegans alike will enjoy! Good value for money too.

We happened to find this place by chance. Since my friend from Japan had just arrived after a flight, we wanted to have a warm light dinner, so we had Pad Thai and crispy spring rolls. Everything was delicious, and the staff's smiles made us feel relaxed.

Este era un increíble restaurante tailandés vegano! Su ambiente era encantador, el personal era respetuoso, y la comida llegó rápidamente. Dumplings 10 / 10 con la salsa. Me encanta la textura, curry verde tailandés cosa encantadora a ella y un toque de dulzura 10 / 10. Pad Thai y todo lo demás estaba en el lugar!

Literally cannot recommend this place enough - our favourite vegan restaurant in West London!! Great that they deliver locally too. A staple in our places to dine out. Quick service, delicious food and great atmosphere. I recommend this place to all my vegan and non-vegan friends, including anyone who is just visiting London!!

Amazing and super authentic Thai food. Had the tofu and apple salad, and a rice noodle dish which I had with tofu and veggies instead of the mock duck and mushrooms. Both dishes were stunning! Would highly recommend this place. Staff was very friendly and the service swift.

The best vegan food I’ve ever had. Super vibrant and flavourful. You don’t miss the meat at all. Highly recommend the popcorn chicken, tom yum noodle soup and fried fish with morning glory. Service was also friendly and efficient.

Fantastic vegan spot! Everything I ate was delicious. To start off my favorite thing was the mango iced tea! It was so good that I ordered two. I ordered the Chinese crispy chive cakes. And they were everything I wanted and more. It might be the reason why I just might come back! Then I had the coconut spicy soup with mushrooms! The broth was scrumptious! Lots of lemongrass and a variety of mushrooms in the soup. Then I ended with the massaman. It was really good I wished the sweet potatoes in it were a bit more soft and cooked. But the flavor was really interesting and good. The service was very good and good came out in great timing. I recommend booking a reservation so you can get a table outside on patio! But a reservation isn’t required at all. I walked in around 8 pm on a Sunday night

The best place to eat and enjoy lovely time. Clean tables and cutlery, delicious food and warm welcome from personnel 🫶😍

Been twice on visits to London this year. Delicious food, lovely ambiance, and their apple salad is the best I've had - Thailand or elsewhere.

Mali Vegan Thai is a delightful spot for delicious vegan cuisine. The menu offers a wide variety of authentic Thai dishes, all made with fresh, flavorful ingredients. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, perfect for a relaxing meal. The staff are friendly and attentive, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy tasty vegan Thai food!
